Recruiting studies
- NCT07316894Recruiting
Consensus on IWS diagnosis for ICU doctors

Jeddah, Mecca RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07324421Recruiting
Ultrasound vs. CT scan for brain blood flow imaging
This study compares a new ultrasound-based method to a standard CT scan for measuring blood flow in the brain. It is designed for people in the ICU or CCU who are already scheduled for a CT scan and could benefit from a simpler, more portable imaging option.
Montpellier, HeraultAges 18 years+ - NCT07343440Recruiting
Nutrition support guided by metabolism for ICU patients
This trial tests whether providing nutrition that is precisely matched to your body's energy needs can improve recovery for patients on breathing machines. It uses a special test to measure your metabolism and adjust the feeding accordingly.
GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT07307066Recruiting
Ventilation feedback study for lung protection in ARDS
This study tests a computer system that gives real-time breathing machine advice to help protect the lungs of patients with severe lung injury (ARDS). It may help doctors adjust the ventilator settings to cause less damage.
Qujing, YunnanAges 18–75 - NCT07348471Recruiting
Gut bacteria transplant for ICU delirium
This study tests whether giving a transplant of healthy gut bacteria (called fecal microbiota transplantation) can help treat delirium in ICU patients. It may improve brain function by restoring gut health.
WuhanAges 18–80 - NCT07351799Recruiting
Mindfulness and meditation for NICU moms' breast milk
This study tests whether mindfulness and meditation education helps mothers in the NICU produce more breast milk. If you join, you'll learn relaxation techniques and track your pumping routine.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 20 years+ - NCT07372586Recruiting
Behavioral health support after ICU stay
This study tests a collaborative care model for mental health and recovery after an ICU stay. You might qualify if you visit the MUSC ICU Recovery Clinic within six months of leaving the hospital.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07384585Recruiting
Light therapy study for children in the ICU
This study tests whether light therapy can help children in the pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) feel better and recover. A parent or guardian must be at the bedside and speak English.
Columbus, OhioAges 4–17 - NCT07390786Recruiting
Family support program after ICU stay
This study tests a collaborative care program for family members of ICU recovery patients, designed to improve mental health support after a loved one's hospitalization.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07395297Recruiting
Airway clearance therapy for ICU lung infections
This trial tests a new airway clearance device in ICU patients with pneumonia. It may help clear mucus from your lungs and improve breathing without needing a breathing tube.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT02426255Recruiting
Study of serious injuries and complications after trauma
This study follows people with severe injuries (including head injuries and bleeding) to better understand serious complications that can happen after trauma. Your experience may help doctors predict and prevent these complications in the future.
AngersAges 15 years+ - NCT07411963Recruiting
Early ravulizumab for severe myasthenia gravis crisis in the ICU
This study tests whether starting ravulizumab early, after plasma exchange or IVIg, can help people with a severe myasthenia gravis crisis who are in the intensive care unit. It aims to see if it improves their condition.
Nice, Alpes-maritimesAges 18 years+ - NCT07434908Recruiting
Study of HBP and lung fluid in ICU patients
This trial looks at a protein called HBP in the blood and how it relates to fluid in the lungs. You can join if you are over 18 and already have a special heart monitor called PiCCO in place.
ÖstersundAges 18 years+ - NCT07452939Recruiting
Brain stimulation to help memory after ICU delirium
This study tests if a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation can improve thinking and memory problems that can happen after a stay in the ICU with delirium. It may help people who are still having cognitive issues a few months after leaving the hospital.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 50–75 - NCT07460141Recruiting
Blood tests to predict death risk after surgery in the ICU
This study is looking at whether certain blood tests can help predict the risk of death after surgery in ICU patients. If you have had surgery and are now in the ICU, your blood samples may help doctors learn more.
TrabzonAges 18 years+ - NCT07467551Recruiting
Pain scale study for patients on breathing machines
This study tests a pain scale for patients who are on a breathing machine and cannot speak. It aims to help doctors better recognize pain in these patients.
IstanbulAges 18–85 - NCT07475767Recruiting
Ultrasound and nutrition in surgical ICU patients
This trial uses ultrasound to check muscle and body composition in patients recovering from surgery in the ICU. It also looks at how nutrition affects recovery, so you may be asked about your diet.
OsijekAges 18 years+ - NCT07485244Recruiting
EEG brain monitoring in ICU patients at risk for delirium
This study uses a simple headband (EEG) to monitor brain activity in ICU patients who are at high risk for delirium. The goal is to see if the EEG can help detect delirium earlier, so doctors can provide better care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07514650Recruiting
Citrate Blood Thinner Safety in Critical Kidney Care
This study tests whether a specific blood-thinning method using citrate works safely and effectively in critically ill patients whose kidneys have suddenly stopped working and need a special filtering machine. Researchers want to confirm that this approach prevents dangerous blood clots while keeping patients safe.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07522450Recruiting
Sleep monitoring in critically ill patients on breathing support
This study measures sleep quality in patients hospitalized in intensive care who need help breathing. Researchers will use EEG (brain wave monitoring) to see if tracking sleep helps improve patient care and outcomes.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT07536750Recruiting
Comparing Two Sedation Drugs for ICU Patients on Breathing Support
This study compares two medications (ciprofol and propofol) used to keep ICU patients calm and comfortable while they receive non-invasive breathing support, such as oxygen masks or tubes that help them breathe without a breathing tube in their windpipe. Researchers want to see which drug works better and is safer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07537621Recruiting
How the heart's right chamber responds to fluids in ICU
This study watches how the right side of your heart responds when doctors give you extra fluids to improve blood flow during a critical illness. Understanding this response may help doctors make better decisions about fluid treatment in the ICU.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT07542613Recruiting
Educational Program for ICU Patients' Recovery
This study tests whether teaching ICU patients and their families about recovery can help patients regain strength and function after leaving the hospital. Researchers will follow patients for several months after discharge to see if the education makes a difference in their recovery.
